I am a tea fanatic and am currently trying to grow my own on my balcony. My dream is to perform a medically themed stand-up comedy routine someday, or to get an onion-style article published in an online journal. I enjoy most generally nerdy things.

I am interested in healthcare policy, specifically how the US achieves similar outcomes to other economically developed nations, why we spend around twice as much, and why we can’t seem to change. Healthcare decision-making and incentives on the part of patients are other related interests – why do humans make poor long term decisions for short term gain?
